Rail fixing – holding pins, nails and setting tools

01

Secure hold for every U-rail

A U-rail is only as good as the way it is fixed. Our holding pins, plastic nails and special nails secure the rail reliably on the insulation – even under the dynamic load of screed work or staple guns.

Different lengths, materials and head shapes are available depending on the substrate. The patented Winkler holding pin with barbs locks instantly even in thin or soft insulation and needs no tools.

02

Setting tools for efficient work

For larger areas we recommend our staple and setting tools. They reduce installation time many times over and protect backs and joints on site. All tools are matched to our pins and rails – a complete system from a single source.

03

Consulting and worldwide delivery

As one of the world's leading manufacturers of fastening technology for underfloor heating systems we ship to more than 35 countries. Our application engineers help you choose the right fixing for your insulation and site conditions.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a holding pin?
A holding pin is a plastic pin with barbs that fixes U-rails securely to insulation boards. The patented Winkler holding pin locks instantly even in thin or soft insulation and can be fitted without any tools.
How do you fix U-rails to insulation?
Depending on the substrate: with holding pins or plastic nails on insulation boards, with staples on staple insulation, or with our powder-actuated setting tool directly on concrete and screed.
Which fixing survives screed installation?
Our nails and holding pins are designed for dynamic loads – such as when the screed is poured and driven over. The barbs anchor permanently in the insulation, so the rail stays exactly in place until the screed is applied.
